Wire is sized to carry current, it doesn't matter whether the voltage is AC or DC. The larger the diameter of the wire the more current it is allowed to carry.

At what degree does a conductor have to pass through a magnetic field to get maximum induced current?

The induced current is maximum when the axis of the conductor, its velocity, and the magnetic field lines are all mutually perpendicular.


A material that current can pass through easily?

A material that passes current easily is called a conductor. The best conductors are metals.


What is the conductor of 5 ohms?

A conductor with a resistance of 5 ohms allows electric current to flow through it with relatively low resistance. The specific materials and dimensions of the conductor determine its resistance; for example, copper or aluminum wires can have different lengths and cross-sectional areas that influence their overall resistance. In practical applications, a conductor's resistance affects how much current can pass through it for a given voltage, as described by Ohm's Law (V = IR).


What is a feed through capacitor?

A feed through capacitor is a type of capacitor (if you don't know how a capacitor works, look this up before going on) for bypassing RF voltage frequencies to ground of a transmitters chassis. It is built by putting a dielectric around a conductor and encasing it in a metallic tube.. so that the conductor is one plate and the outer tube is the second plate. They are shown in a schematic diagram by a straight line and a half moon to the side much like standard capacitor with the exceptions there are three connections. Two for the conductor plate and usually one for the outer shield. The higher frequencies that travel down the conductor plate 'pass through' (no current flows through the dielectric of a capacitor, unless it is leakage current or breakdown current) the dielectric to the outer case (typically grounded), while the lower frequencies (and DC) continue on through the conductor. So, in effect, what a bypass capacitor does is pass the DC current through it while bypassing the AC to ground of the chassis. The value of the capacitor will determine the capacitive reactance and what frequencies will pass more freely to ground.


Is it true the alternating current can pass through a capacitor while the direct current cannot pass through?

Yes.

What is the component that allows current to pass through easily?

The component that allows current to pass through easily is called a conductor. Conductor materials have low resistance and allow electricity to flow through them with minimal hindrance. Examples of conductors include metals like copper and aluminum.


A material through which a current can pass?

A conductor is a material through which a current can easily pass due to its ability to allow the flow of electrons. Examples of good conductors include metals like copper, silver, and aluminum.
